He comes from a family deeply rooted in the arts, with his 10 siblings, parents, and grandmother, Ada Bird Petyarre, all having contributed to the legacy of painting for Mbantua Gallery. Although not a prolific painter, Trinity began his artistic journey on canvas in 2002.

Trinity's work focuses on the Mulga Seed Dreaming and Mulga Berries Dreaming, which depict the men gathering seeds and berries that fall from the mistletoe on the Mulga Tree.
